I have a totally different view of this than most.
I do not for on second believe this is an accurate depiction of this guys character. It was a show. If anyone acted like this in public, he would be locked dup for sure and without question. You will never see someone act like this outside the forum of a video of this nature. He wasn’t insane, he was jsut warped badly. He knew exactly what he was doing.
I feel that the release of the video is however, useful and damaging at the same time. It CAN be both, you know.
This information gave me a face to hate, something to direct my empty feelings toward. I needed it in a strange sorta way in order to help myself move past the feelings I had about the incident and the poor kids who died and were injured at his hand. I don’t consider it of educational value at all for the untrained public like myself.
I do wish that the media would have held it for at least a few weeks... purely out of respect for the families of both the dead and this whacko’s parents... I’m would bet that they are suffering as much as the parents of the victims.

Well, I think this video *was* an accurate depiction of his character. The *false* depiction of his character was how he acted in public. He “muted” his true character, out of the realization that if he showed it *fully* he would be locked up. At least he had that realization.
So, no..., he was showing his true character. He was *hiding it* — in public, to a degree. Although, he wasn’t quite hiding it enough — as his fellow students actually discussed that he would probably be the next “school shooter”.
It turned out that his fellow students were right. He turned out to be the next school shooter...
